Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Schroon Lake, NY.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Schroon Lake have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
